It's a fresh take on a classic summertime salad.
Cherry and grape tomatoes are the most flavourful winter choices. If you can't find a round of rich, creamy buffalo mozzarella, substitute bocconcini balls cut in quarters.
10 min 10 min prep 8 skewers
6 ounces buffalo mozzarella
24 small cherry tomatoes
24 basil leaves
24 (5 inch) bamboo skewers
Vinaigrete
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt
Whisk vinegar in a small bowl with oil, pepper and salt.
Cut cheese in twenty-four 1/2 inch cubes. To assemble, slide a tomato onto a skewer, followed by a basil leaf, folded in half, and a cheese cube.
Repeat with remaining skewers.
Arrange on a serving platter and brush or sprinkle with vinaigrette.
Cover and let sit at room temperature up to 2 hours before serving.
